Start by mentioning that the crackers are gluten-free and delicious.

In a mixing bowl, add buckwheat flour and almond flour.

Add a little bit of salt and garlic powder to the bowl.

Prep the baking pans by spraying them with avocado spray to make the parchment paper stick.

Whisk the buckwheat flour, almond flour, salt, and garlic powder together until combined.

Add extra virgin olive oil and warm water to the mixture.

Mix until everything is well combined, aiming for a consistency like thin pancake batter.

If the batter is too thick, add more warm water, about 1/4 cup at a time, until it reaches the desired thin consistency.

Pour about half of the batter onto a baking sheet and spread it out thinly using an offset spatula.

Prepare the pistachios by placing them on a cutting board, covering with Saran Wrap, and pounding them into smaller pieces.

Sprinkle the crushed pistachios and sunflower seeds over the batter on the baking sheet.

Finish with a sprinkle of salt and fresh cracked pepper on top.

Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 300°F for 30 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through after 15 minutes.

After 30 minutes, take the crackers out of the oven and place them onto a cutting board.

Cover the crackers with a cooling rack, flip them over, and carefully peel off the parchment paper.

Return the crackers to the baking sheet and place them back in the oven for another 30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

Break off the crispy ends of the crackers and return the chewier center pieces to the oven for an additional 20 to 30 minutes if needed.

For a second batch, use a ninja air fryer set to air roast at 295°F for 10 minutes.

After cooking, check the first batch; if not crispy enough, continue breaking off the crispy pieces and return the rest to the oven.

Serve the crackers with hummus or enjoy them plain.
